A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold is as pictures of silver.(Prov.25:11) It is so important to speak the right words to people at the right time to produce the right results. When you think of apples of gold in pictures of silver, then you are thinking of wealth and excellence. When we speak wisdom into the lives of others we are making them wealthy. Therefore we must seek God for He is the source of all wisdom and He will give us just the right words needed at the right time.

#Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 1 John 4:1 Try the spirits to see if they are of God.
The Greek word for spirits is Pneuma, meaning a current of air, i.e., breath or a breeze—the rational soul. Try the spirits to see if they are of God. Hereby, know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God. So the first test is to believe in the virgin birth of the Lord Jesus Christ. If anyone does not believe that, they are of the spirit of antichrist that will come and deceive many. And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God. So the second test is to believe that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, the Greek for Logos, the living Word. That is Jesus Christ. And this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is in the world. So the third test is anyone who fails to believe in Jesus is of the antichrist and does not listen to them. Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world. So the final test is to know anyone who is of this world, is not of God, for the whole world is in the hand of the wicked one, the devil, and greater is the Spirit of God in a Christian than the spirit of the devil in this world. So try the spirits to see if they are of God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. We are under Satanic attacks, and we have to remember that the Spirit of God in us is greater than the spirit of the devil in this world. So try the spirits to see if they are of God. Jesus told us that we would know them by their fruit. For a good tree does not bear evil fruit, and likewise, an evil tree cannot bear good fruit. Judge not lest ye be judged, but if we would judge ourselves, we would not be chastened with the world. Therefore, let us be fruit inspectors looking for the fruits of the Spirit. Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, and faith. Against such, there is no law. So when we see these fruits operating in the spirit, then we know they are of the Spirit of God. The Spirit of God takes the things of Christ and makes them real in our lives. For Satan can transform himself into an angel of light and deceive many. Try the spirits to see if they are of God, and when we do these things, we will escape the corruption in this world, which is through lust. For all that is in the world is the lust of the eye, the lust of the flesh, and the pride of life. Whosoever is a friend of this world is at enmity with God. Therefore, come out from among them, touch not the unclean thing, and live a holy life separated unto God, which is our reasonable service.
#The beginning of the word of the LORD by Hosea. And the LORD said to Hosea, Go take unto the a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great whoredom, departing from the LORD. Hosea 1:2 Gomer the whore
The Hebrew word for whoredom is Zanuwn; for adultery and idolatry. So Hosea took Gomer, the daughter of Diblaim, who conceived and bore him a son. And the LORD said unto him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, I will avenge the blood of Jezreel upon the house of Jehu, and will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel. And it shall come to pass at that day that I will break Israel in the valley of Jezreel. Gomer the whore, is parabolically the wife of Hosea, to warn what will happen to the northern tribes of Israel for committing whoredoms and idolatry in the land. This is a warning to America to repent of the idolatry she is committing today. One nation under God with liberty and justice for all is the motto, but it is not living up to that motto. The immigrants are being sent back, and no longer are we the home of the brave and the free. The national debt is causing inflation to be out of control, and the Fed cannot lower interest rates to improve the economy. This is why Jehovah God told Hosea to marry Gomer the whore, so that he could understand the hurt that Israel was causing to God the Father, the husband of Israel. David learned this from Nathan's parable, Thou art the man, and the sword would not leave his household for committing adultery with Bathsheba. How can Hosea deal with Gomer the whore? He will put her out of the house for all of her whoredoms, and that is similar to what God did to Israel. The nation that forgets God shall be cast into hell. If America does not repent, then this will happen to her. Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD. 2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Jezreel will be the last battle field called Armegeddon where God will judge Israel for her whoredoms, and all the nations that committed adultery and idolatry with them. We must warn Gomer the whore to repent. Hosea will buy her back, and she will become a faithful wife, and God will restore the kingdom to Israel when she repents, and says blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a reproach to all people. Brothers and sisters, let us take heed, repent, and turn to the Lord.1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
#But and if thou marry, thou hast not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she hath not sinned. Nevertheless, such shall have trouble in the flesh, but I spare you. 1 Corinthians 7:28 If you marry, you have not sinned.
The Greek word for marry is Gameo, meaning to wed of either sex. Paul is telling us that those who marry will have trouble in the flesh. Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give you my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful. I suppose, therefore, that this is good for the present distress; I say that it is good for a man so to be. Art thou bound unto a wife? Seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? Seek not a wife. But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none; And they that weep, as though they wept not and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not and they that buy, as though they possessed not; And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away. If you marry, you have not sinned, even though it may appear at times that you have. Please get to know your spouse and what makes them perform in the marriage. How can two walk together, except they be agreed? Find common ground on which you can agree. For the two of you shall become one flesh. Remember the words of our Lord, who said let not them that God hath joined together be separated. If you marry, you have not sinned. Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed is not defiled, but fornicators and adulterers God will judge. Walk in the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh. Learn to disagree, but to be agreeable. This will keep peace in the marriage. Get therapy, and both of you go to it faithfully. Read the word of God every day, for man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God. This will keep you grounded in the Word and your marriage. I can say after 38 years of marriage if you marry, you have not sinned. For God said it is not good for man to be alone, so He put Adam to sleep, and took one of his ribs, and formed a woman. Adam was happy and said Bone of my flesh. Marry in the Lord, and you will be happy, for whosoever finds a good wife, has favor with the Lord.
#Jesus wept. John 11:35 Why did Jesus weep?
The Greek word for wept is Dakruo, meaning to shed tears., Then Mary came where Jesus was and saw Him; she fell to His feet, saying unto Him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, He groaned in the spirit, and was troubled, and said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto Him, Lord, come and see. Jesus had told the disciples that He was going to wake up Lazarus. The disciples did not understand, so Thomas said he that sleepeth doeth well. Then Jesus said No, he is dead. When we die, we fall asleep. So this is why Jesus said I am going to wake him. Jesus wept at their unbelief. For Jesus had told them that if they would believe, they would see the glory of God. We are like the man who said unto Jesus, Lord, I believe, but help thou my unbelief. We are so slow to have faith. Romans 10:17 Faith comes by hearing the Word of God. So we must read and meditate on the word of God to increase our faith. Then said the Jews, Behold how He loved him! And some of them said, could not this man, who opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died? Jesus allowed Lazarus to die so that the glory of God could be revealed. We must remember that faith is the substance of things hoped for, and the evidence of things not seen. Without faith, we can't please God. So, ye Jesus wept because of their unbelief. All things are possible if only we would believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. One day, Jesus is going to step out of the clouds and shout," Come up hither," and all those sleeping in the graves who trusted in Jesus will be awakened. This is our blessed hope, and I am praying for Sarah, who has a fever, that Jesus Christ will heal her. I believe that Jesus has already healed her, and I am rejoicing in the Lord forevermore. This is the kind of faith we must have to please God. So no matter what your problem is, have faith in God, that He can save unto the uttermost, all those who call upon Him. Pray as the disciples said, Lord, increase our faith. Thank God that as we study His word, He will increase our faith. Jesus wept twice in scripture, and it was at the death of Lazarus, and when He told the Israelites If only you had believed, I would have taken you under my wings as a hen takes her chicks, but ye would not, behold your house is left unto you desolate. We must always believe what the Lord has commanded us to do. He has told us to occupy until He comes again. So let us be about our Father's business, waiting for Jesus to come again.
#Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. Matthew 22:37
The Greek word for love is Agapao, which means to love unconditionally; in Hebrew, it means Agab for much. But when the Pharisees had heard that He had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together. Then one of them, who was a lawyer, asked Him a question, tempting Him, Master, which is the great commandment in the law? This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Jesus told the lawyer, who was tempting Him, that we must love the Lord God with all our heart, and soul, and mind. This is unconditional, for God is a jealous God, and we must not have any gods besides Him. Then Jesus said the second is like unto it: Thou must love thy neighbor as thyself. This is difficult for some people because they do not love themselves unconditionally. The whole law is completed when we keep these two commandments. That means racism has to go, for there cannot be any discrimination in Love. We must ask the Lord to teach us how to love like that. The Greek word for heart is Kardia, for the thoughts or feelings. The Greek word for soul is Psuche, meaning inner being or life and breath, and all thy drive and passion. Then the Greek word for the mind is Dianoia, meaning deep thought, contemplation, and imagination or understanding. These three emotions must be in our love for the Lord God and our neighbor. When we learn to love like that, we have arrived at keeping the whole law of God. This is what God commands of us every day, and we do this by meditating on the word of God. We must hide the Word of God in our hearts, so that we will not sin against God. Love does no evil to his neighbor. So when we do these two commandments, it is by the power of the Holy Spirit. Who indwells us and teaches us how to be like Jesus. Just as the good Samaritan saw the man who had fallen by the road robbed by thieves, he put him on his horse and took him to the hospital, paid his bill, and said If there is any more, to charge it to my account. This is unconditional love. This is the love Jesus has for us, and He is interceding for us at the right hand of the Father in heaven.
#And he sought God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the visions of God, and as long as he sought the LORD, God made him to prosper. 2 Chronicles 26:5 True prosperity comes from seeking the Lord God.
The Hebrew word for prosper is Tsalach, meaning to push forward in various senses. King Uzziah sought the Lord, and Jehovah God caused him to prosper and push forward in all that he did. When Uzziah was sixteen years old, he began to reign, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was also Jecoliah of Jerusalem. And he did that which was right in the sight of Jehovah God, according to all that his father Amiziah did. We are about to celebrate Father's Day, and King Uzziah was a good leader for all of us men to follow. True prosperity comes from seeking the Lord God, and that is what Uzziah did even at the age of sixteen. The Bible tells us that righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is an abomination to the Lord. We need to pray for our Fathers to be like Uzziah, who sought the Lord all the days of his life. And he went forth and warred against the Philistines, and broke down the wall of Gath, and the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod, and built cities about Ashdod, and among the Philistines. And God helped him against the Philistines, and against the Arabians that dwelt in Gurbaal, and the Mehunims. And the Ammonites gave gifts to Uzziah, and his name spread abroad even to the entering in of Egypt; for he strengthened himself exceedingly. True prosperity comes from seeking the Lord God, as Uzziah did, and he was strengthened exceedingly by the Lord. This is the prosperity that we want for our families, and we as fathers must seek the Lord God with our whole hearts all the days of our lives. We must raise our children in the commands of the Lord and pray for them every day. When we do this, we will see them push forward in the Lord in their lives. When the righteous rule, the people prosper, but sin is a reproach to the people when the wicked are in authority. So if you want success in your life, then True prosperity comes from seeking the Lord God. Do that by reading the word of God every day and meditating on His precepts. If the Lord had not been on our side, our enemies would have overcome us. Yet we see how the enemies of Uzziah gave gifts to him. When a man's ways please the Lord, then even his enemies will be at peace with him. This is what we want as fathers for our families. Be at peace with all men and follow after holiness, for without holiness, no man will see the Lord. True prosperity comes from seeking the Lord God, so do it and you and your families will be prosperous.
#Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. 1 Corinthians 7: Celibacy is a gift
The Greek word for good is Kalos, meaning virtuous. Paul has the gift of celibacy, and he knows that celibacy is a gift, so he says that it is virtuous of him not to have carnal copulation with a woman who is not his wife. The Corinthian church had a lot of lasciviousness, and Paul taught them that it is better to marry than to burn with lust. This command can be kept by a man with Celibacy as his gift. Not every man has this gift. Marriage is honorable in all and the bed undefiled. So if you are burning with lust toward a woman, then it is better to marry and live in holy matrimony. Paul is the only apostle who did not marry, as all the others had wives. So we can see why the Holy Spirit used him to expound on this passage of scripture. The Greek word for touch is Haptomai, meaning to attach oneself to. Touching in marriage is proper, and rendering due benevolence is commanded in conjugal relations between spouses. No touching a woman improperly to seduce her is prohibited. This is a problem when massaging a woman. My wife always preferred women to massage her, and that was a proper thing to do. However, a man can massage a woman, as long as he is virtuous and has no carnal copulation with her. Not all men can do this, so best for husbands to massage their wives, and wives to massage their husbands. Celibacy is a gift, and if you have it, it is a blessing, and you can serve the Lord better than a married man can, who must attend to the desires of his wife. This is why Paul was greatly used of the Lord because he had the gift of celibacy. Paul wrote 14 of the books of the New Testament, and this is why he could say it is good for a man not to touch a woman, because he did not burn with lust for her. Because of the stresses of the present day, Celibacy is a gift worth having. However, if you do not have celibacy as a gift, and burn with lust, then pray for a wife. He that finds a good wife has favor with God.
#And Joshua said unto Achan, My son, give I pray thee, glory to the LORD God of Israel, and make confession unto Him; and tell me now what thou hast done; hide it not from me. Joshua 7:14 Beware of Covetousness
The Hebrew word for Achan is Akan, meaning troublesome. So is everyone who is to beware of covetousness. So Joshua rose up early in the morning, and brought Israel by their tribes; and the tribe of Judah was taken. And he brought the family of Judah; and he took the family of the Zarhites man by man; and Zabdi was taken; And he brought his household man by man, and Achan, the son of Carmi; to son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken. And Achan answered Joshua, and said Indeed I have sinned against the LORD God of Israel, and thus have I done. When I saw among the spoils a goodly Babylonish garment, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold of fiftyshekels weight, then I coveted them, and took them; and behold, they are hidden in the earth amid my tent, and the silver under it. So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent, and behold it was hidden, and the silver under it. Beware of Covetousness, for a man's life does not consist of the things that he has. Because of his covetousness, Achan caused evil to come upon Israel and all his household. The sin of covetousness is so secret until it manifests in the heart. May the Lord purge the sin of covetousness from our hearts and lives. How many homes are divided today because of covetousness? Repent of this silent and secret sin before it destroys your family. Seek ye first the kingdom of God and its righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto thee.
#Love not the world, nor the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 1 John 2:15
The Greek word for world is Kosmos, meaning orderly arrangement, i.e., decoration and the inhabitants. The apostle John is telling us not to love the wicked system in which this world is arranged. The whole world lies in the hands of the wicked, the devil. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life is not of the Father, but of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust thereof, but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. John is not talking about ecology, but the economy of making money, and the love of money is the root of all evil. Many have become shipwrecked because they loved this worldly system. Whoever loves the world, the love of the Father does not abide in him. It is not a sin to be rich, but no man can serve God and mamon, for he will love the one, and despise the other. Yes, the scripture tells us that if riches increase, we must not set our eyes upon them.
#It would be better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones. Luke 17:2 Do not offend the little children of this world.
The Greek word for millstone is Mulos, which means a mill (by implication), a grinder, through the idea of hardship. I enjoyed FaceTime with my grandchildren yesterday, and they are so beautiful and loving to me. I pray for them every day and plead the blood of Jesus for them. Jesus is teaching His disciples how to forgive. Then said He unto the disciples, it is impossible but that offenses will come; but woe unto him, through whom they come! Take heed to yourselves: if thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. And if he trespass against thee seven times a day, and seven times in a day turn again to thee, saying I repent; thou shalt forgive him. And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith. We need faith to forgive. We must have childlike faith to forgive our brothers and sisters. Jesus warns Beware of offenses, for they will come, but Do not offend the little children of this world, for of such is the kingdom of God. We must learn to forgive just like the little children forgive. I remember being told by my parents I would get a Pogo stick for Christmas, but I never did get it. I forgave them because they had six children to provide for. But we must be careful. Do not offend the little children of this world. We do this by loving them and teaching them the Word of God. The scripture says to train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart. Jesus told us to rebuke our brother if he sins against us seven times a day, and if he repents, to forgive him seven times. Seven is the number for completion. Just as Jesus completely forgives us when we repent of our sins, we must also completely forgive our brother when he repents. This is how children forgive us, love us, and have faith in us as parents. So we must not offend the little children of this world, for they teach us how to love our Heavenly Father. Pray for your children, and love them even when they become prodigals, and just know that your prayers will bring them back to the Heavenly Father when they get older. Then kiss them and put a ring on their finger for love and forgiveness.
